Three days later and have heard nothing from eBay and my picture is still being hosted by them...................

Jean, did you fax the Vero report? If so, follow up and ask for a status. It took them a while to react to mine as well. I was fortunate that my pics were being hosted somewhere else and that site responded faster than Ebay to take them down (within 24 hours). Ebay removed the actual auction listings after they ended and sent an email to the buyer. It is frustrating at how long these take to get resolved.

edited for typos..sorry

Jody,

I reported him and the auction on Sunday Morning and have gotten no response as of yet. I don't even know what a "Vero" report is.

I am going to contact customer service right now as it has been 72 hours.

Ok, I filled out and faxed a form that is titled: "Notice of Claimed Infringement".

 

[hinkjc]

That's the one. The purpose of the initial fax is to get your picture automatically protected by Ebay (I think). It says that future reports can be done electronically and would more likely produce faster responses to these types of problems. I hope this helps.

Okay, again it's not 100% fool proof but should stop most people from easily stealing photos. But I made some changes. the1much, try it now. I know there will always be a way, my point is to take away the simple ones. I will have to work on the tool bar coming up still. But I removed the abilities of lessor browsers. LOL

And yes, you could imbed harmfull software hidden in a photo that could potentialy damage a theif's computer, however most anti-virus programs scan for that now. LOL
